TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Fit for a king: Trump just said the quiet part out loud in last night’s Truth Social post about the ongoing remodeling of the White House and its grounds. “(U)nder the Dumocrats, the White House was a badly maintained ‘dump,’” he wrote. “Now, it is a Palace!” And just who lives in a palace? I think we all know the answer to that question...Dept. of No Surprises: Would anyone be shocked to learn that a Russian oligarch with ties to Vladimir Putin footed part of the six-figure after-party bill for Don Trump Jr.’s wedding last May on a private island in the Bahamas? According to the Associated Press and other outlets, Umar Kremlev paid for the rental of a remote island as well as the fireworks show. Not a good look for the Trump family, but what else is new? The president, it should be said, did not attend the wedding. I wonder if this was the reason. What dad doesn’t attend his son’s wedding?...Help wanted: The conservative Victory Girls blog is on the hunt to hire two professional writers, according to a recent post on the site. Each writer will be expected to contribute 2-3 articles a week. But there’s a catch. The gig doesn’t pay. Let’s see who turns up....Sure to annoy the right: Colin Kaepernick’s memoir The Perilous Fight lands today in bookstores (lousy title, BTW). The former NFL QB famously kneeled during the playing of “The Star-Spangled Banner” to protest police brutality ten years ago and his career never recovered...Found: Republican Senator Mitch “MIA” McConnell returned to the Capitol in a transport chair yesterday to cast his first vote in three months. Speculation swirled over the summer about the whereabouts and health of the powerful but infirm 84-year-old Kentucky politician. (Daily Caller)...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
